We have a Steam curator now. You should be following it. https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44994899-RPGHQ/

Are indie devs inherently communists or are they being bribed? What is capitalism anyways? And more!

No RPG elements? It probably goes here!

I dunno, if I were an Indy dev that was secretly a Chud, I'd accept all the woke bribes, create their woke slop that inevitably fails on their time while pocketing the money, then recycle all the code and profits to release my actual project.
What if you just make a good game instead?

This attitude is the reason why there is no "right wing games" better than indie rouge-lite. Nobody sane will do job to fund another job.

This is what game developers already do, and have been doing for over two decades. Stellar examples of slop that have come from taking all this "free money":

Code: Select all

KCD2, Avowed, every Dragon Age, Fortnite, Dustborn, Concord, Suicide Squad... 
Examples of amazing passion projects, fueled by slurping up the slop-trough money:

Code: Select all

 
Curious.

On the other hand, you say this is what you, based dwarf bunker-dwelling raw-meat-eating potato-running BLAXWIFE possibly cannibal MUH THERMODYNAMIX, would do if you were an indie dev. Yet you've never done it. It's so easy. It's literally free money. You just have to pick it up and spend it. This is what you tell us. But you don't do it.

I don't have any contacts at all in the dev community. And an Indie game takes like 5-10 years to develop. I'm probably not gonna be alive by then.

Besides, that's over now. USAID has been axed. We're in MAGA Country now.

I want my gang in charge, not the zionists. I don’t give a **** about theories or egghead cope. I want my gang to have the guns and power and suppress, imprison, and kill those who act outside of my gangs interest.
Couldn't agree more. Was there some analogue to the Inquisition in Orthodox church history? I asked @WhiteShark and he wasn't aware of any. If there wasn't, the church should really look into it.

If you use 1 or 2 developers on it. (Sui Generis? Kenshi 2? DF?)

Nothing prevents indie from hiring a dozen to speed things up...only requirement is to be clearly and well-documented.

In Orthodox countries the state/military and Church work together. There is no real separation. Weapons and warriors are blessed and there are Holy knights, warriors, etc. So there would be no catholic style inquisition. The knights, lords, etc would handle that stuff. It’s basically a permanent “inquisition” if you want to see it that way. Orthodox countries also always have the death penalty and use it often. This lets their prisons be actually used for rehabilitation.

Unfortunately most of these countries fell to masonry/zionism or were externally ravaged by war with muslims, communists, nato, etc. There isn’t even really an Orthodox country anymore, probably closest things are Georgia and Serbia. Orthodoxy in most places is catacomb Churches, groups of persecuted believers, and small gatherings of true believers. We have an absolutely horrific problem of apostate bishops and fake kgb/mason shell churches.

I have no doubt most of “orthodoxy” (online, wcc stuff, greek/oca and mp) will worship the antichrist. These “churches” are already called antichrist churches by the modern Orthodox Saints.

How can anyone listen to this limp wristed ****** and not want to bully him? "Oh my snoy, a game developer isn't following my brand of rhetoric, I'm so doomer blackpilled now." If I find out a game is made by a rabid liberal, I just don't buy and play it. My day is hardly ruined. This guy finds that out, and conducts a targeted campaign to ruin the persons image.

Just pathetic in all forms. I hope Brigador Killers still comes out, I really enjoyed the first game, and now it makes sense why the game resonates given its creator isn't some ****** afraid of masculinity.

This. One of the main reasons for the downfall of the West is separation of Church and State. It allowed easy subversion and corruption of the political process and military. A warrior priest caste has a way higher morale than an atheist materialist one

Agreed about holy knights and so on, but I think the merging of the normally rival castles of Church and State is an event for specific times, people and circumstances.

We have (had, will have again?) the merging of the Church of Woke with the State of GAE. Do we like it? Was it conducive to ordinary citizens living quietly productive lives of dignity? Do we want this union, in this time, place and these circumstances?

On the other hand, we had the merging of the Catholic Church and the defunct Western Roman Empire under King (later Emperor) Charlemagne. Do we (I, really) want that back? Do I long for that union, in that time, place and those circumstances?

The Church is the people, not simply the clergy. You literally have to merge the Church with the state or you’re some chimera monstrosity. Just because there were bad emperors and rulers doesn’t mean you abolish rule. It’s the same ******** thing anti-natalists do where they point to bad parents and say nobody should have or submit to their father’s authority.

Good leaders are good and wicked ones are bad. Make good leaders. Get rid of bad ones. It is literally that simple. God rules through Godly men. If you force only wicked men in the state or positions of authority (what the west has done for centuries) then you ensure the world will degrade and become worse each year. And of course the state will persecute the Church and subvert it from within as well.

God’s laws are not “moral guidelines”. They were literally given to us to be our literal laws and rules. However, even more important than the laws themselves are having Godly judges who have “ears to hear” and can through the grace of God interpret and implement God’s Holy Will in these laws and circumstances they rule over.

Without Godly authority a country is defunct and useless. It’s like a feminist man submitting to some girlboss woman or some **** people pleaser yes manning their jewish boss. Also, separating “Church and state” didn’t make the Catholic Church or Protestants more pure. It made them extremely deluded and limp wristed. Now most are emasculated graceless cowards and simpering weaklings. Their “faith and practices” are now humiliation rituals that weaken and degrade them instead of filling them with power and grace.

I would argue that the state was responsible for the cucking of the Church. Woke communism came from State "intellectuals" and infiltrated every institution. Had the State still been a Christian theocracy, anti-white race communism would have been routed out long ago. Guess who advocated for the separation of the two back in early 1900s?

From what I understand initially the Catholic Church had hang ups about working with him but saw that it was in their best interest to protect Europe and themselves from the evils of Bolshevism. This was because he was attempting to revive some aspects of native German pagan tradition (which wasn't a bad thing). He knew that he had to work with both sides (Christian and Pagan) to succeed.

Hello Wretch! Thank you for this divine piece of wisdom! I really wish I could go back in time - some 8 000 to 10 000 years, when "civilization" apparently began - and tell people about it!

I can imagine it very clearly right now: I hop out of my time travel pod, somewhere in Mesopotamia, and the first thing I get to see is people in the act of making a bad guy their leader.

I shout: STOP! YOU GOT IT ALL BACKWARDS! YOU NEED TO MAKE THE GOOD GUY THE LEADER AND GET RID OF THE BAD GUY!

I'm met with confused looks, followed by whispering. Some guys approach me - clearly with the intent to beat me up - when another guy, who had stayed back, suddenly shouts: "WAIT! HE'S RIGHT!"

"Think about it, my fellow tribesmen! I know it sounds crazy, but just think about it for a minute! We've been going about this the wrong way all along!"

In this moment I knew, I had succeeded. I travel back to my time. I step out into a world that even a the most creative and imaginative sci-writer couldn't have dreamed up.

I learn that mankind is in the process of colonizing the entire universe. All worlds suitable for life in the Milky Way galaxy and even surrounding galaxies have already been terraformed into planets that are even better than Earth.

A group of white, blonde and blue-eyed people approaches me - other kinds of "humans" no longer exist, apparently. They start thanking me and point to a statue they built in my honor.

Apparently, science had advanced so far that they were even capable of finding out about my time travel trip. Crazy!

I speak to the group of people: "People, don't thank me! Thank Wretch! It was him who gave the world this simple yet effective piece of advice! Long live Wretch."

The group starts chanting "Long live Wretch" along with me. Mankind had been saved.
It is unironically this simple though. Also, science is for ****.

Agreed, for the most part. What I'm saying is, we should desire Godly morality and authority above anything else. But considering the lack of one or the other, or both, we should not desire their unification. You really don't want wicked people running the show on both sides of the house (with Church and State - morality and authority - united). You want them fighting each other. Let's go back to the example of today: the Church of Woke and the GAE. Currently the demonic morality of Woke is united with the cynical, effeminate and fatuous authority of the GAE. The unity of morality and authority in these circumstances creates a hellscape for anyone determined to live a life of virtue. Not only is virtue already difficult and mocked (as in most times and places), it is also actively penalized.

Now consider if both these institutions, in all their corruption and wickedness, were not united. If they're fighting each other, decent citizens receive two boons (relatively speaking): the two institutions are more busy struggling for dominance (or simply asserting their spheres of authority) than they are policing their sheep; and the sheep (theoretically, at least) have the option to move from one to another - meaning, their voice carries more weight. Do the sheep long for a virtuous authority that governs with virtuous morality? Yes, they do. Should they then decide that, because righteous morality united with righteous authority is the ultimate good, morality and authority should always be united? I would argue no, they should not. They should want the wicked divided against itself, with each of its rival castles focusing the majority of their energies against each other.

Should they then decide that, because righteous morality united with righteous authority is the ultimate good, morality and authority should always be united? I would argue no, they should not. They should want the wicked divided against itself, with each of its rival castles focusing the majority of their energies against each other.
The Church is the gathering of true believers so wanting them in the state and at the head is always the goal. People just got psyopped into sitting on the sidelines and letting the **** run the show. Actually implementing your faith into law or systems now is considered “cultish” for Christians while everyone else does it freely.

Squabbling over types of government or politics isn’t what I’m talking about at all. Nor am I saying some fed or agent should run the Church (though they do in most “churches”). What I am saying is the body of Christ, those with the Holy Spirit, being in positions of power and carrying out God’s will is what fixes things. It has always been what fixed things back in the OT (judges) and in the early Church as well.

If you combine evil authority and the Church submits to it then it becomes an antichrist organization. This was the original complaint Orthodox Christians had with Catholics when the pope was made the godless emperor’s puppet and papal infallibility was introduced to force everyone to submit to him. This has happened many times throughout Church history and frankly it’s never been as bad as it currently is. There are a lot more of these antichrist “churches” than real ones and things are quite grim. But ultimately God wins and all who choose Him do as well.
